One cannot blame the BJP if Dr. Willy and Sardinha fell for the BJP con. Besides, as Dr. Willy, Sardinha and in fact Parrikar were told (by the electorate): "he who climbs to the kodel by way of coups...is eventually pushed off courtesy a coup. Just ask Salazar, Franco, Mussolini, Hitler and Zia ul Haq. As far as the MGP is concerned, I'd say that MGP=BJP. re #4,5,10,14 & 15: If there is proof of this, may be Aires Rodrigues will organise a PIL or demand a public inquiry to determine the truth. Perhaps, Dr. Wifred Mesquita will go on a day's fast at whichever maidan. re #6: This is NOT true. What is certainly true is that Dr Shushrut Martins (and Dr. Francisco Colaco) were given a very "kind" warning NOT to Mess with things. re #7: While this may be true or false - I wonder how the sudden increase in personal wealth can be explained. re #8,9, 11 & 13: True from all available evidence. re # 12: Nothing wrong with promoting Marathi. What was and still is wrong was/is trying to suppress the Konkani spoken by Goans. BTW: the BJP/MGP folks are nOT the only ones who suppressed the Konkani that Goans spoke and speak. There are other folks including some Catholic priests and ex-priests who are helping the suppression! re #16 & 17: That certainly appears to be the case. re #18 & 19: I am not so certain about this. IF this is true, then Goa is done for good. re #20: That is the saddest event (IMHO) in post 1961 Goa. It is my personal belief (and somebody please tell me I am wrong ) but the idealogical zealots had decided that the time was right to totally wipe out the Catholic Church from Goa. They had worked hard on masalafied facts as "talking points" i.e. St. Francis Xavier, Inquisition, Forced Conversions, Sonia Gandhi ...a Roman (Rome is the capital of Italy), Roman Catholic Goans, Mother Teresa, Why don't you have your Swadeshi Catholic Church?, ....They had brought in 'deputationists' from all over and filled up posts which Goans could have easily filled, Many educated Catholics left Goa ...and the Catholic community became identified with Churchills et al i.e. ALL Catholics are like Churchil (unless like Aires, Matanhy and Mesquita they support the BJP). This was accompanied by the Language struggle and the Script battle ...after the Statehood and META troubles (to use an euphemism). Catholics were softened up ..."Now, let's put the coup de grace on them" with this horrible communal VideoCD...one final step towards converting Goa into the Kashi of the West! Mercifully ... one change took place a few kilometers (:-) north of Goa i.e. Sonia Gandhi was able to beat the Advani and Vajpayee crew. That singular event, I submit, took all the 'phunk' from the Goa communalists. No wonder they have a thing for Sonia. re 20a: I would never say that. Tch Tch Tch. Manohar Parrikar is our brother Goan. Sure, he has tried to do the unimaginable to some among us (albeit with a smile). He is still our brother Goan. I suggest that we never wish ill on a brother Goan - whatever his faults and whatever his acts of commission against us. BTW: He is one of the most capable Goans at the moment to change Goa's course towards chaos. But WILL he change ...or merely wait his turn to pull another coup? Time will tell jc
